Tribology design is one of the most important parts of mechanical product design as thestrength design. Unfortunately, because tribology design knowledge is often m ulti-disciplinary,complicated and piecemeal, it is therefore difficult for a mechanical designer to capture the neededtribology design knowledge. The concept of tribology design repository is proposed in this paper totry to address this problem. This paper presents an object-oriented knowledge representation lan-guage based on the modeling of tribology design component and it makes the complicated tribol-ogy knowledge represented has such advantages as inheritance, encapsulation, and consistency.A web-based triblogy design repository is then established and it enables the edition, retrieve,sharing and reuse of corporate tribology design knowledge in the repository from the Internet.

The concept of tribology design repository is proposed in this paper to try to address this problem. This paper presents an object-oriented knowledge representation lan- guage based on the modeling of tribology design component and it makes the complicated tribol- ogy knowledge represented has such advantages as inheritance, encapsulation, and consistency. A web-based triblogy design repository is then established and it enables the edition, retrieve, sharing and reuse of corporate tribology design knowledge in the repository from the Internet.
